Hi, I am Yasuhiro. Call me Motchee. I am guiding mainly in Hakone, Mt. Fuji, Tokyo, Kamakura, and my local area Shizuoka-Shimizu where you can observe Mt. Fuji clearly. I personally like travelling. So, if you want to go other areas, it is my pleasure to prepare customized tours! My home town Shizuoka has a port named Shimizu, where a lot of large cruise ships visits all the year round. So, about the half of my tours have started from this port. Many tourists from abroad want to see Mt. Fuji. I love to introduce about Mt. Fuji, which is not only a mountain but home to almost all the Japanese people. I have travelled in many foreign countries. In unfamiliar places, I have encountered a lot of kind and heart-warming people who voluntarily guide me to many places where usual travelers wouldn't go to! I really appreciate to their kindness and generosity. So, I wish to be such a kind of person who can be friendly and generous to foreign visitors and tell something different from other guides. For the past decade, the number of tourists from abroad has been rising so amazingly, but almost all the visitors visit some major cities such as Tokyo and Kyoto, which is called a "golden route" in Japan. In Japan, however, there are more attractive places than in Tokyo and Kyoto! Visitors have not noticed the existence or charm of them. Here in Shizuoka, there are a lot of famous and not famous places which should be known more to foreign visitors. In that sense, I want to be a pioneer to introduce the charm of those places and connect them to foreign visitors who willingly want to know about Japan further. I can arrange my tour (including the date and time) flexibly. Especially, cruise passengers are given limited hours in visiting port. I would like to shorten the tour with the same value as the original tour or prolong it if you want it. So, don't hesitate to ask me to make a difference. I want to be a flexible tour guide. I am looking forward to your booking! National Tour Guide-Interpreter Licence (#115) National Tour Conductor I am a professional governmental licensed tour guide for English speaking people. Under the related national law, licensed guides are not allowed to drive cars for the guests. So, I have a drivers' license, I cannot drive a car as guide.

Overview of your Tokyo tour

Kamakura used to be the political center of Japan in the 12th and 13th centuries for 140 years, and a lot of national treasures as well as important cultural assets, are exhibited. It is also well-known for visitors' friendly city because of its size. Major cities can be reached by a local train (ENO-DEN) or JR trains and bus services. Those who love the nostalgic atmosphere of Japan, Kamakura will be the best place to visit. The tour guide takes you anywhere you want, according to your interests. Kamakura is also a popular place for anime fans. Younger generations trace places where memorable scenes are depicted. You can enjoy a variety of seafood and local gourmet in Komachi Street near JR Kamakura Station. Along Komachi street, a lot of fancy handicraft shops and food shops as well as local gift shops are found. Walking along the street for about 20 minutes, you will see Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine, where the first Shogun of Kamakura feudal government, Yoshitune, established.
